I've been drifting in forza3 since release, seriously loving it as well.

I bought ps3 just for GT5, I have to say I'm really disappointed in it, but that's a whole nother thread.

Hint: s15 a standard car!?! Some of the best ground breaking drifting cars are no where as cool, customizable and good looking as in Forza 3, big deal to me.

Anyway, are there online drifting point races like in Forza3? If not, peace GT5.
 
There aren't any online point drifting shindigs in GT5. There are single player drift runs with points, no multiplayer ones though. I'm actually laughing right now that you said that you'll sell the game if theres no "Point Drifting" online, If your seriously gonna do that, thats just MASSIVE stupidity right there. IMO (and in many other peoples opinion) drift points were one of the stupidest thing EVER in FM3.

There is a premium S15, right there in the Nissan dealer, you must be blind to not see it. No where as good looking, pshh you b trollin son.


Actually, go ahead and sell it, after re-reading the OP, you don't even deserve to play Gran Turismo, go back to playing your arcade racer with its drift points.

Kindly, Drift points don't matter, though they did make a Drift Scoreboard.

hint: S15 is premium, points drifting is retarded and is what killed FM3 online drifting.
 
Nevermind with the "no online drift pts". Im disappointed that there are no touge courses, or atleast allowing us to race with course maker maps racing from point A to B uphill or downhill. Also, where is my EBISUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
 
Oh please, online point system ruined F3? Give me a break, at least it gave you some sort of idea where you were at, and challenged you to get to the top rank and get better at it. I was drifting online last night in GT5, it's just a bunch of cars going around a track, no challenge and it feels much colder than F3 online, the point system is what held it together and kept people trying harder, GT5 is weak. And that sucks.

Yeah of course some tards were finishing with ridiculously high scores, but it never bothered me and I was able to ignore it. You could easily pick out who was legitly drifting and then try to beat their score.

Secondly, The s15 I bought in the used section is definitely a standard car, not a premium. I haven't seen the premium s15, but I understand it's in the Dealership. BUT What about all the other legends in drifting like the chaser, fc, s13, s14, etc. that have been passed by.

And I totally agree about the absence of touge's, they could have had some wicked midnight touge courses on there. I'm seriously missing Fujimi Kaido.

Please don't get me started on F3 vs GT5...
Better motor sounds = F3
Better mechanical/aesthetic customization = F3
All cars have interiors and not that far off compared to GT5.
NO ANNOYING SHADOW AND SHADING GLITCHES
NO NASTY JAGGIES ON CARS IN WEATHER/TIRE SMOKE
Car selection was much better in Forza as well.

Give me a break, it doesn't take a genious to see FM3 wins in more ways than one over GT5 (and that's coming from a hard core GT3,4 lover and Forza 1,2 hater)

GT5 has weather and nice scenery and better physics, that's about it. I'm seriously having issues making up my mind if I'm staying with it. Weather, scenery and better physics, flames and moving parts still doesn't make up for where it falls short IMO.


I rank 10371 on the F3 Drift leaderboards, I put in the game time, so I should know. Thanks for telling me what game I do and don't deserve to play, noob.

your coming over a bit trollish..and drifting points as said killed it...what happened to the days someone went wow that was awesome and not lol it looked k but its not got the points.It leads to no style whatsoever imo.

a premium one is in the car dealership not the used one btw.
 
Regardless as to what you feel it did for F3, it doesn't mean GT5 doesn't need some sort of points system.

I'm not into grip racing, I would play F3 just for drifting, and played online in private matches as well as public, GT5 doesn't even give you any kind of scoring in the online drift mode, and that is retarded. That's what I was planning on doing with GT5.
 
FAIL. drift points kill drifting, its all about getting a group of friends and getting some sick tandum runs in, having a good laugh with friends, chilling and making videos with your crew. ITS NOT ABOUT POINTS!!!!!
 
Stop trying to press your opinion.

I have mine.

Right, thats why D1GP and FD is all about just getting together and having some "sick" tandems, no scoring there. 💡
 
Please do not get off topic. If it ever occurs to that, I will ask a mod to close this thread.
Hamma808, please review the AUP Thank you. 👍
aup
You will not use “textspeak” (“r”, “u”, “plz”, etc.) in your messages. Decent grammar is expected at all times, including proper usage of capital letters.
 
i dont think i broke any rules, i wasnt attacking anyone, i just said that drift points=fail. just stating the facts. sorry if it offended anyone.

Drifting for points in FM3 is retarded and shows no skill.

I made a video for T10 for FM3 so I should know. Take that Iam ranked blah blah and shush.
 
FC, S13 and S15 are all premium -_-

Good to know!

You are missing my point.
Say you wanted to make a private room and hold a competition, there's no points structure which makes that virtually impossible.

You made a video for turn10? Congrats, that doesn't make you god, nor does it make your opinion hold any more weight.
I make drifting videos in REAL LIFE for FormulaD and other drift events. I even drift IRL.

eh?
 
Guess what...in, you know, real life and stuff. D1, Formula D and whatnot...there isn't some magic scoring gadget they attach to the cars to calculate their scores. There's a panel of judges that give the drivers their scores, and this is 100% doable in GT5s online mode.

I've never liked the idea of drifting for points, really. I only did it in GTPSP so that I could make money while drifting. It encourages milking the system and finding little exploits to squeeze out extra points regardless of you look doing it.
 
I kinda liked prologues drifting leaderboard, it was pretty challenging to break top 10 (top 10 had their runs saved online for everyone to view). By watching replays of the top 10, you know no one was "cheating" the scoring system. They even broke the scoring down to car model. Hope they bring the leaderboard back to gt5

Private room to make a comp, ok, go to My Lounge, make a room, tell the contestants to join. And since when do you need points to do a competition? Many drift comps in MANY games (all Forza's, TDU, LFS, etc.) have all been judged without points, they have been judged by people looking at the runs.

You make drift vids FOR FD? I would like to see some proof, give me a website, your name (which if you're famous enough, privacy isn't much of an issue) or any credentials (a media pass for ANY FD event with a piece of paper that says porschedrifter next to it).

And you're placed 10,000 on FM3 drift leaderboards, cool, I used to be placed top 10 on many tracks.

And you bought Gran Turismo just to drift? Really? You won't rally, race, do any of the license tests or anything. You wasted your money bro.

Why can't we just get along? Anyways moving on. I don't think we need a SPS on GT5 like Forza3 because I am sure we all like to make our own rules and points system. Now if we were given the option then maybe just maybe it would be ok but it would have to be very customizable. Do we need it on GT5? No. Would it be nice to have something that we could create and make our own SPS on GT5? yes but it would have to better than Forza3 points system because it's not deep enough.
